Ingredients

Here is what you’ll need to make this easy snack recipe.

Ingredients for White Chocolate Puffcorn

2 bags of butter flavor puffcorn (3.25 oz per bag, 6.5 oz total) – we prefer Chester’s puffcorn (butter-flavored), but you can use any other brand.

1 package of almond bark (20 oz, any brand) – you may be able to find almond bark at a local grocery store, but it can sometimes be hard to find, especially if you’re searching during a non-holiday season. In our experience, it’s easier to find around Thanksgiving and Christmas. You should be able to order it from Amazon or other sites year-round. You could also use white chocolate chips.

Sprinkles – optional

Supplies

  • Parchment paper or wax paper
  • Large bowl
  • Medium bowl
  • Spoon
  • Storage container

How to Make White Chocolate Puffcorn

Follow these easy steps to make this delicious snack recipe.

Step 2 | Melt almond bark

Then, in a medium-sized bowl, add the almond bark (broken down into individual pieces). Melt the almond bark in the microwave in small increments of 15-30 seconds (to avoid burning), and stir it often.

Add food coloring to the almond bark

You can add a bit of food coloring to the almond bark to add color to the coating itself. However, be careful not to add too much, as this can make the almond bark chunky. If this happens, you can add paramount crystals or another candy thinner.

Create a sweet and salty trail mix

Mix it with other sweet and salty snacks for an extra-yummy treat. Some ideas: pretzels, chocolate chips, nuts, crushed candy canes, M&M’s, Chex cereal, and gumdrops.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are questions related to making this sweet puffcorn treat.

What can I use if I can’t find almond bark?

We highly recommend almond bark based on flavor, but if you’re in a pinch, you can use white chocolate chips or candy melts instead. If you use white chocolate chips, be sure to use a little coconut or vegetable oil to thin it out.

What brand and flavor of puffcorn should I use?

We love Chester’s puffcorn for this recipe, but you can use any other brand. Use butter-flavored puffed corn for the best taste—we’ve tried plain puffcorn, and it doesn’t have the same delicious flavor.

Can I use regular popcorn in place of puff corn?

Yes. Although the taste will be different (and not as delectable, in our opinion), this recipe will work with regular popcorn as well.

How long does it last?

It should last up to a week or more if stored in an airtight container. Of course, the sooner you eat it after making it, the better the texture and taste.
